Slogan: The Hellenistic Empire is G.R.E.A.T.S. like Alexander the GREAT. (put Jacobs name in here too )
Introduction:
The Hellenistic Empire went from 323 BCE to 30 BCE.
The Empire was ruled by Philip II and the Alexander The Great.
Government:
The Hellenistic Empire was a monarchy.
The monarchy first started with Philip II from Macedonia, and then Alexander, his son, continued to make the empire grow.
Alexander was a skilled soldier and only 20 when he became King.
He never lost a battle, and he was determined to accomplish his father's dream and invade Persia. Alexander was swift and brutal with his punishments.
The power of City-states disappeared after Alexander the Great became the King.
When Alexander died, there was no heir so the Empire went through some years of disorder.
Three Generals ended up dividing the Empire into: Macedonia and Greece, Egypt, and Most of Persia.
The Generals ended up fighting over the land for 300 more years.

Summary:
Some of The Hellenistic Empire's greatest achievements are having a new school of thought, philosophy, stoicism, basic geometry and many more. The Hellenistic Empire could also be thought of having the most advanced military. Euclid wrote the basic elements for geometry, and Pythagoras created the Pythagorean formula which are both key concepts in today's math. They also had a rich culture that created a strong and educated society. As you can notice in the maps, Alexander conquered much land, and it was all gained in little time; this made the Empire one of the civilizations that progressed the best.
